GAC Cross League Matchups

I just noticed that division 2 currently has 1 person in Aurodium league. Does that mean that person will get 3 byes (max scores) or will that person be matched against people in chromium league?

They haven't, to my knowledge, stated whether or not cross league matchups are possible anymore. While I would assume that for situations like this they are I have not been in a group with folks from different leagues. Seems like a reasonable question.

Anymore? Cross-league match-ups have never been possible. GAC has always been set up to limit match-ups within leagues. They used to have match-ups across divisions, but that was changed. Keep in mind, however, if someone gets promoted to a higher league during the 3 match group, that won't matter....it's the league they were in at the time they joined the group.

Anymore or not anymore (that’s really not relevant to the question), have they ever explicitly said this? There is evidence that they try not to match across leagues but to limit the number of byes they may under certain circumstance match across leagues. Again, there is evidence (a seemingly small number of byes) that seems to support this too.
